Remember the time

Sometimes when I look back at my past, I would smile thinking of how smitten I was towards a certain person.


You know the feeling that he was meant to be ‘The One’?


I think it was those feelings that kept me going throughout those years with him - through all the heartache and tears. Read the rest of the story here:

At least I know now that we can’t rely on our hearts alone when it comes to relationships.


Rationality should be a keyword in all of our dictionaries.


If being together with him/ her doesn’t make you happy today, what makes you think that things will change tomorrow?


But sometimes the truth is indeed hard to swallow.


If two people are meant to spend their lifetimes together, it will happen eventually. No pushing or shoving required.


If it’s not intended to be, no matter how much effort one party puts in, at the end of the day, both sides will end up being miserable. So, what’s the point?


Are there things that you’ve regretted in any past relationships?

Definitely. But I've made my choice and am now walking down the path I’ve picked. And there seems to be no U-turn in sight. Maybe this is where and who I'm destined to be with – as of now.


After all, who are we to say that we know for certain what is going to happen tomorrow?


Considering the fact that we are no fortune tellers, well, at least I'm not anyway.

No turning back,

The Reinhold fella had erroneously reproduced the quote. The original quote goes like this:
"You need the serenity to accept the things you cannot change, the courage to change the things you can and the wisdom to murder and dispose of the bodies of those who piss you off."

Baby brother: Hmm... I think you'd better not tell ppl what you are going to do for a living.
